modes in which STA is performed using Primetime

scan mode sta

What are the various modes in which STA is performed using Primetime.

Added after 54 minutes:

I mean OCV, PVT are different modes right.. If so then do we generate timing reports in each mode (like with OCV, with PVT). What all analysis are to be made while doing STA.

slow process corner for sta

dear Designer,

my 2 cents,

How many minimum modes i should qualify STA for a chip

1. Scan Shift mode

2. Scan Capture mode

3. MBIST mode

4. Functional modes for Each Interface

5. Boundary scan mode

6. scan-compression mode

How many minimum process lots , should STA be qualified.

1. Fast corner

2. Slow corner

3. Typical corner

How many minimum Timing , Should STA be qualified.

1. normal delay mode(with out applying deration)

2. On-chip variation mode (deration applied)

3. SI mode (Signal integrity cross talk impact on STA)

How many minimum STA runs should we needed to address = 6*3*3.

Re: STA modes

so good , also Now synopsys make the process more corner than before!
